<瑞奇馬汀 / 烈愛人生>
節奏國度絕地大反攻 重登流行歌壇一哥寶座
如果懷疑瑞奇馬汀的音樂實力,認定他的音樂早已靈感枯竭,距離《Sound Loaded》五年來第一張英文專輯《Life》勢必帶來絕地大反攻的強勁震撼,從製作概念、融合多變的樂風、編曲、演唱等各項評比,瑞奇馬汀都很有資格說,這絕對是最能代表他音樂生涯的里程作品,《Life》十首作品(專輯還有另兩首西班牙版作品)把所有瑞奇馬汀所能表現的優點都撐出有型風格,原創的、豐富的、深度的...不得不讓人引用珍娜傑克森1989年的劃時代鉅作《1814節奏國度》相提並論,《Life》帶來擁有國際觀點的音樂流派與他在心靈深處從來沒停止過的熱情,在現今流行歌壇缺乏獨特樂型的時刻,《Life》的適時出現不僅是一次成功的回歸,也絲毫讓人找不到任何這一兩年新起潮流的影子。
瑞奇馬汀是拉丁歌壇的一個重要Icon,也是引領拉丁風潮的第一推手,除了電動馬達外,過去多首膾炙人口的熱門唱作也是他的註冊商標,但他的音樂往往熱鬧有餘,少了深植人心的深刻感受,甚至演唱抒情歌曲也有些力不從心,不過這次他出招絕非又是一張拉丁專輯,相反的,新作有相當強烈的企圖和突破,難能可貴地是初試製作人身份的瑞奇完全表現出他在音樂上的驚喜...就連情歌女王Diane Warren為他創作的〈Stop Time Tonight〉少了過份矯情,表現的深情嗓音讓人感動;而大師Billy Mann製作的〈Save The Dance〉更出現瑞奇少見的輕盈浪漫,都是相當完美的非芭樂情歌。
第一主打歌〈I Don’t Care〉雖然找了「小碧昂絲」Amerie和嘻哈天王Fat Joe讓歌曲加足滿分,但實際上瑞奇並未失去第一男主角之名,中版的節奏挖掘出更有個性的瑞奇;邀請雷鬼樂手Julio Voltio的〈I Am〉有豁出去的大膽直接歌詞,卻也帶來瑞奇以往未見的超性感歌聲:管樂激盪的〈It’s Alright〉是瑞奇擅長的節奏勁曲,時尚味道讓人驚喜。等到黑眼豆豆團長製作、邀請近來拉丁當紅炸子雞Daddy Yankee和他互尬整張專輯最拉丁的〈Drop It On Me〉,又帶領聽者到拉丁歌曲最high時刻!再加一首艾薇兒幕後製作群Matrix的〈This Is Good〉,已讓人不知身處加勒比海還是里約熱內盧的嘉年華會。而在這些激情之外,請聽瑞奇找來超龐大的弦樂團打造的〈Til I Get You〉與〈I Won’t Desert You〉,他突然又帶著我們到另一個或者沙漠世界,或者中東色彩的世界邊緣,而這一切歌曲都在專輯同名曲〈Life〉的混合樂風中找到心靈的歸屬方向。
很多大牌歌手往往都在推出自己新專輯時說,這是他最自我的作品,但瑞奇的感覺卻是一種既是傾聽又是和世界抗衡的意識,或許瑞奇從來不是個精於炒作新聞的歌手,但五年後聆聽《Life》時,我才發現,原來那個熱情的瑞奇從沒離開,也帶給歌迷另一個重整出發的新瑞奇馬汀。
I Don't Care 我不在乎
Featuring Fat Joe &, Amerie
[Ricky]
Yea yea
[Fat Joe]
Crack Crack Crack!!
I don't care thats what ricky said
[Ricky]
I don’t care, I just wanna be yours
I know I told you I’d
Never love you the way that I did again
After all that you did to me
But I got to say
I don’t care, I just wanna be yours
And I am tryin’ everything in my power
To never ever say
Please come back to me
But I got to say
You promised me
We’d always be
You’d never let me go
You took the ring and all the things
that came with being my girl
A tragedy as I walked through that door
He had your feet up over the seat
All I heard was screaming
It was like a movie
Too real to me
That just can’t be my bride to be... No!
I was shocked as could be
never thinkin’ one day
I’d take this blow blow blow
I was startin’ to feel like
I should kill everything that was moving....Whoa!
I’ve never been in hell like this
Somebody wake me up
I don’t care, I just wanna be yours
I know I told you I'd
Never love you the way that I did again
After all that you did to me
But I got to say
I don’t care, I just wanna to be yours and
I am tryin' everything in my power
To never ever say
Please come back to me
But I got to say
The crazy part was that he
just kept going
'cause she was the only one
that had noticed me
Staring into the eyes
That I will one day call my babe
How could I've fallen so in love
With someone I'd known for years
And not even know that
She'd be the one
To reveal my worst my fears
It was like a movie
Too real to me
That just can't be my bride to be... No!
I was shocked as could be
never thinkin' one day
I'd take this blow blow blow
I was startin' to feel like
I should kill everything that was moving....Whoa!
I've never been in hell like this
Somebody wake me up
I don’t care, I just wanna be yours
I know I told you I’d
Never love you the way that I did again
After all that you did to me
But I got to say
I don’t care, I just wanna be yours and
I am trying everything in my power
To never ever say
Please come back to me
But I got to say
[Amerie]
I didn't mean to do
All those things to you
Tell me what to do to make it up to you
I’ll do everything, anything that you want me to.
I didn't mean to do, oh
All those things to you, oh
Tell me what to do, oh, to make it up to you, oh oh
I’ll do everything, anything that you want me to
[Fat Joe]
Should I leave, should I go, should I break apart
My mama said you would break my heart
I can’t believe you were sleazing, you’re a slut, a ho
now you wanna have a change of heart – Damn!
Who'd have thought
That you would deceive me
Love of my life
And my queen like ivy
And you didn’t even tell me you leavin'
I had to hear about it on Escandalo TV
Now who's this man creeping in the back door
While I'll hit him with the fo fo fo
I know you keep saying that you lovin'me so
But why the hell are you crushin' him for
...god damn now
I don’t care that's what Ricky says and
If I catch him in this crib he'd be dead
I don’t play that mami
Now back to the 'jects you go
I left your Reebok's by the front door..... kick rocks!
I don’t care, I just wanna be yours
I know I told you I’d
Never love you the way that I did again
After all that you did to me
But I got to say
I don’t care, I just wanna be yours and
I am tryin’ everything in my power
To never ever say
Please come back to me
But I got to say
[Amerie]
Sorry baby
didn’t mean to hurt you
[Fat Joe]
I don't care thats what Ricky said
我不在乎
我只想做妳的附屬
我知道自己說過永遠不再對妳付出
妳讓我受那種屈辱
但我不得不承認
我不在乎
我只想做妳的附屬
我用盡全力克制自己絕不脫口而出
拜託妳回來的求訴
但我終究得認輸
妳承諾過永遠跟我一起
說什麼絕不把我放棄
妳取得了戒指
以及一切做我女人的禮遇
晴天霹靂
在我進門之際
他壓著身下的妳
我卻只聽到狂喜的呻吟
像部電影
太過清晰
那個不可能就是我的未婚妻... No!
極度震驚
從沒預期
有天會遇上這樣的打擊 擊 擊
不禁興起
一股殺意
想把整個世界全部移平... Whoa!
從沒嚐過
這種煉獄
誰來把我從夢魘中驚醒
我不在乎
我只想做妳的附屬
我知道自己說過永遠不再對妳付出
妳讓我受那種屈辱
但我不得不承認
我不在乎
我只想做妳的附屬
我用盡全力克制自己絕不脫口而出
拜託妳回來的求訴
但我終究得認輸
瘋狂的是他竟然沒有停
因為只有她發現了我在那裡
望入那雙眼睛
即將屬於我的寶貝眼睛
我怎麼可以這麼死心塌地
為熟識多年的她付出真心
卻不曾看出一點端倪
沒想到她會印證我最糟糕的恐懼
像部電影
太過清晰
那個不可能就是我的未婚妻... No!
極度震驚
從沒預期
有天會遇上這樣的打擊 擊 擊
不禁興起
一股殺意
想把整個世界全部移平... Whoa!
從沒嚐過
這種煉獄
誰來把我從夢魘中驚醒
我不在乎
我只想做妳的附屬
我知道自己說過永遠不再對妳付出
妳讓我受那種屈辱
但我不得不承認
我不在乎
我只想做妳的附屬
我用盡全力克制自己絕不脫口而出
拜託妳回來的求訴
但我終究得認輸
我不是故意
要去傷害你
告訴我要怎麼做
才能彌補我的過錯
只要你開口﹐什麼事﹑任何事我都會照做
我不是故意
要去傷害你
告訴我要怎麼做
才能彌補我的過錯
只要你開口﹐什麼事﹑任何事我都會照做
我該去﹑該走﹑還是該落淚
老媽說過妳遲早會讓我心碎
不敢相信妳真那麼賤﹐妳這蕩婦﹑婊子
現在竟還打算要跟我ㄘㄟˋ --馬的﹗
誰想得到
妳竟然會把我騙倒
我的摯愛
我的夏娃另一半
要走也不坦白相告
我還是自己從八卦新聞上看到
從後門偷跑進來的是哪根蔥
我對他大罵 fo fo fo (f*ck? f*ck off?)
我知道妳口口聲聲說愛我
那妳幹麻還對他偷偷摸摸
...去他媽的
我才懶得裡Ricky說什麼東西
他要是跑來這裡就是不要小命
女人﹐妳這種遊戲我沒興趣
快滾回妳的臭水溝裡
妳的鞋子我已經擺在大門口... 踹妳出去
我不在乎
我只想做妳的附屬
我知道自己說過永遠不再對妳付出
妳讓我受那種屈辱
但我不得不承認
我不在乎
我只想做妳的附屬
我用盡全力克制自己絕不脫口而出
拜託妳回來的求訴
但我終究得認輸
寶貝對不起
不是故意讓你傷心
一路下來好多髒話= = " (爆汗~) 好孩子不要學唷~
